be busy over the weekend. have a great weekend. captions by: caption colorado comments@captioncolorado.com good morning. to our viewers in the west it is friday october 5th, 2012. welcome to "cbs this morning".." a dramatic drop in the nation's unemployment rate is felt from wall street to washington. >> as the president sharpens attacks on mitt romney the blame game over his debate performance continues. and why gas prices are soaring to nearly $6 a gallon in some parts of the west. we begin this morning with a look at today's "eye opener," your world in 90 seconds. this isn't a game changer, but it certainly is a small step forward. >> the unemployment rate falls to a near four-year low. >> 114,000 jobs created, a little bit better than expected.

the surprise is the jobless rate fell to 7.8%. >> the same rate as january 2009 when president obama took office. >> now and then you're going to say something that doesn't come out right. in this case i said something that's just completely wrong. >> for the first time romney backed away from his controversial remarks about the 47% of americans who don't pay federal income taxes. >> this whole campaign is about the 100%. >> you want to be president, you owe the american people the truth. dozens of american airline flights are canceled. the latest fallout from a seat scare on several flights. gas prices are going up across the country, but in california, they're soaring to a panic level, hovering near the $6 mark. >> oh, my god, i've never seen it so high. this is unbelievable. get a look at this, the first snow of the season, making a mess across the upper midwest. >> we're excited. sucker punch, camera inside a city bus. >> that bus driver becomes the

target of an angry fare jumper. >> oh! james bond made his big screen debut 50 years ago. >> back in england, everybody gets a day off. bradford is going to go deep. and how about that? >> did you really need to call barack obama the president of the united states lazy? >> yes. >> and all that matters. >> he hasn't done this poorly since he debated clint eastwood. >> campaign and their supporters debated the president's poor performance on everything from the moderator to the altitude. >> on "cbs this morning." >> yes if he would shut [ bleep ]. >> [ bleep ] captioning funded by cbs >> welcome to "cbs this morning." i'm charlie rose in new york. norah o'donnell is in

washington. jobless report just came out. it shows a growing number of americans are getting back to work. >> the numbers are much better than economists predicted. it's sure to become an issue in the presidential race. >> rebecca jarvis has the numbers and what they mean. >> good morning, charlie. >> what are the numbers? >> the big headline here is the big surprise, the unemployment rate dropped to 7.8%, the first time we've been below 8% since january of 2009. 114,000 new jobs created in the month of september. >> norah? >> rebecca, that's a huge drop, better than expected as you point out. how -- what happened to cause that drop? >> well, this is where the economists are really looking into the number right now, because one of the big reasons behind this number being 7.8% right now is a big increase in the number of people who involuntarily took on part-time work. that number went from 8 million

people to 8.6 million people in the month of september. there are both pros and cons to something loik that happening. on the con side people don't want part-time work or forced into it. they would rather have their full-time jobs. on the pro side when you think about the ripple effect of having work, any kind of work in an environment like this it means hopefully you can keep up with your mortgage pay your credit card bills, you can go into the the holiday shopping season and spend a little extra money. we're a consumer-driven economy. 70% of what our economy does comes right back to us and how we behave. >> what is the expectation that this is a trend and we will continue to see a lessening of the unemployment numbers? >> this is where things get a little more questionable. the last three septembers we've actually seen that part-time unemployment number, part-time employment, rather increase. and it's kind of a cyclical thing. we've been seeing this happen over and over again. what we really want to see is those real great full-time jobs getting filled. that's where people are

maximizing their salary. that's where people are feeling that they really can move forward and make bigger decisions. such as buying a new home. we've seen in fact construction. the numbers of construction workers came back a little bit in this report. the number of health care workers, 44,000 new health care jobs went back to work in the month of september. that's always been a strong category. and it continues to be. the sciences are strong. >> any negative implications from these numbers? >> the negative would be the part-time work. it's going to come back to this part-time work number. if you're working part time and that job for example, goes away or alternatively you're getting paid less than what you really need to survive, then obviously people are going to not be able to spend and be part of the economy like we want them. but another big part of the numbers is the 3.5 million job openings that do exist in this country. every time i speak to business leaders, they tell me one of the biggest issues facing the economy going forward is the skills gap that we see.

there aren't enough people studying science engineering in this country to fill those jobs. >> stay with us rebecca. we want to go now to nancy cordes at the white house with a question of how this is playing on the campaign trail. nancy, good morning. >> good morning to you charlie. the obama campaign and aides here at the white house will be thrilled by this number, if only because it's back below that psychological barrier of 8% unemployment. back down to where unemployment was when the president took office in january of 2009 7.8%. we got a little preview a few minutes ago of what the president is likely to say about these numbers at a rally in virginia this morning from his chair of his council of economic advisers alan krueger, who writes while there is more work that remains to be done today's report provides further evidence that the u.s. economy is continuing to heal from the wounds inflicted by the worst downturn since the great depression. charlie? >> nancy, we've heard from mitt

romney's campaign who said these numbers show that this is not what a real recovery looks like. they point out that he has created fewer jobs in september than in august and fewer jobs in august than in july. how do you think this plays out on the campaign trail since the main argument that mitt romney has against the president is that he can't fix the economy? >> reporter: well, the romney campaign and republicans in general, you can see they're trying to be very careful about these numbers. they don't want to look like they're cheerleading against positive economic news but they want to continue to press the point that they don't think that this recovery as you said, is happening fast enough. in that statement from governor romney this morning is likely to say something similar at a rally in virginia. he is in virginia as well this morning. he is going to say this is not what a real recovery looks like. if not for all the people who simply dropped out of the labor force, the real unemployment rate would be closer to 11%. but this number does deprive romney, norah of one of his

chief rallying cries out on the campaign trail. he says it all the time. and he said it as recently as his closing statement in the debate wednesday night. that this economy has been above 8% unemployment for 43 months. he can't say that anymore. >> interesting thing about this the unemployment number like gas prices has a clear metric that you can look at. below 8% is a way to measure something, at least for one report. >> reporter: that's right. of course, we've got one more report to go before the november election which will come out right before election day. and the white house watches these numbers so carefully. they get nervous days in advance about them. they knew these numbers yesterday. so they had to be happy then even though they were having a terrible day out on the campaign trail because of the way that the president's performance in the debate wednesday night. >> nancy, i want to ask you something that jack welch, former ceo of general electric

tweeted this morning. he is a romney supporter. unbelievable jobs numbers. these chicago guys will do anything. can't debate so change numbers. we've had a response from the labor secretary, hilda solis, who called that ludicrous. this will become a political issue now as to whether these numbers -- as to whether they cooked the books. >> reporter: that's right, norah. the obama said they basically did not want to dignify it with a response. it is getting a lot of pickup. so much so that hida solis is responding to it and some republicans as well are saying that's just impossible. earlier before the jobs report came out, we spoke with former presidential candidate howard dean. we asked the former vermont governor about criticism of president obama's debate performance by fellow democrats. >> it is a lot of hand wringing first of all. the president did fine. mitt romney was very aggressive and they should have been prepared for that. he had had been very aggressive on one of the sunday talk shows

weeks before that. the president preferred to remain presidential and did remain presidential. i think romney did himself some damage. he did well in the debate from a debating point of view. the truth is he has become totally untethered from everything he said before. and with this final apology for the 47% remark he does look like a guy who will say absolutely anything to get to be president of the united states. people don't vote for that. they really don't. >> you really think that the president scored better than governor romney in the debate? >> no. i thought it was a tie. he had to look presidential and he did do that. would i have liked him to be more aggressive? yes. do i think that the team didn't prepare him for the aggressive romney that i saw a few weeks ago on the sunday shows? i think they didn't prepare him. the president has to look presidential. i don't think president obama is going to call mitt romney a liar on the next debate. that's not presidential.

he will be more aggressive. i don't think mitt romney is necessarily a liar, he just manages to convince himself that any position is fine at the time. ted kennedy said it best when romney debated ted kennedy, i'm the pro choice candidate, my opponent is the multiple choice candidate. mitt romney says whatever he has to say. there's no core belief there. that is going to be a problem for him in the general election. i think people are into that. i think they get that politicians say anything and obama doesn't do that. he pretty much tells it like it is. did he do a good job in the debate? no. i think he could have been more aggressive. >> i want to ask you about vice president biden yesterday, on the stump some people are calling it a gaffe, that they want to raise taxes by $1 trillion. guess what yes, we do. is that the right kind of message? >> wait a minute. no. excuse me. the rest of that you had in full context, yes, we're going to raise taxes on the wealthy. they've been saying that for a year. and specifically said we're not going to raise taxes on the middle class. that's what he said.

this is not a gaffe. this is media hang wringing again. people accused me when i was running of gaffes all the time. a gaffe is what people in washington call the truth the that you said when you shouldn't have. they're going to avoid raising tax on middle class people. it's a reasonable thing. that's what they've been saying for a year. >> do you think this debate has consequences for this campaign? >> i think it's a good -- it is a good wake-up call for the president. you have to be more aggressive than you have been. you'll have to call governor romney out on his multiple changes and multiple policies on every issue. heck, he changes immigration policy, economic policy and his attitude toward the 47% all in a period of one week. right before the election. you know i think -- >> many people are saying now that what they saw was the governor romney that they have known all along and what's been the problem in the past is that they haven't seen that person

and he's finally emerged during the debates. >> so you mean he lies through his teeth at the republican primaries when he said he was going to cut taxes for wealthy people? >> no, i'm talking about -- >> repeal the dream act and all this -- he has been aggressive before. look, i think he's a good debater. he's well prepared. he's obviously smart. he doesn't seem to stand for anything. he says whatever he thinks he has to say. he has moved all the way back toward the middle from his extreme positions from the primary. i don't know which mitt romney to believe in. i think this is a guy that will say anything it takes to win the presidency. a rare and deadly meningitis outbreak could get much bigger. thousands of patients may be at risk from tainted steroid shots. steroids were shipped to 23 states. it is unclear how many people received the injection for back pain. so far, at least 35 people in six states have contracted this

fungal meningitis. five of them have died. charlie? visited what's left of the american consulate in benghazi three weeks after the attacks that killed ambassador chris stevens and three other americans. there were repeated requests for additional security before the attacks. cnn correspondent john miller and former fbi director joins us this morning. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> what are we finding out about that security and are we getting the answers that we need? >> well we're going to be learning more. what we're learning now is that there were a drumbeat of incidents, about 13 security threats either directly to the embassy, to the consulate, a handful of those. but incidents in the surrounding area against british red cross and so on. and this was building up. >> why did ambassador stevens go to benghazi? and did they appreciate the danger and did they in fact, have enough security for him?

>> this is a fascinating question. this is where our story forks off in two directions. i've been at embassies all over the world and seen how security works. when it comes to the ambassador whether he is going to make a trip, make that call, in the embassy, the ambassador is king. that is his call, whether he is going to go. the things that go along with that, the security of the facility he's going to the security provided to him on the road a lot of those decision aren't made there. they're made in washington. as we get close to next wednesday's congressional oversight hearing, we're going to start to learn some incredible things. they're working on two witnesses, the regional security officer from benghazi eric in orderstrom, who we understand is prepared to testify about these rising security threats and that they asked for more security in cables and memos to washington and charlene lam, the diplomatic service who approves or denies

those requests. we'll see a lot of news coming out of that. >> i think you're right, john we'll see some news coming out of that. what about the investigation in terms of who is behind these attacks? what have we learned? >> i think the fbi reached that site yesterday. they were able to collect some evidence document the crime scene. but it is still centering in on al sharia a group in libya that reads from the al qaeda narrative, norah and some other groups around that. the question is once they figure out the who done it part -- which they're pretty close to -- what do they do about that? there isn't a criminal justice system in libya that can really handle an arrest and trial and bring them to the united states is fraught with its own issues. they're in the decision-making process about once we nailed it down what do we do with them? >> why do they have a different story in the beginning that they have now about whether this was preplanned? >> i would -- that is the subject of much debate and

consternation. i would put more less focus on thachl the first reports are never right, charlie. the first day, the second. it takes time to get into focus. we were getting the same reports from our journalist colleagues on the ground to a great degree. i think the real crux of it will be what was the deteriorating security information, how much did washington know and what did they deliver in terms of protection? it sounds like they were takinge ing it away more than providing it. >> norah? canceling dozens of flights to repair the sees that could pull out of the floor. american pulled 757s out of service to make repairs. three american flights, seats have come loose. the airline now says the combination of where, poor design and spilled soda they say, is to blame.

charlie? american tourist opened fire at a resort hotel in israel. one person was shot dead. police killed the gunman. the resort in eilat was packed with people. policeman say the gunman stole a gun from a security guard and shot a hotel chef after an argument. the suspect worked at the hotel until a few days ago. he was involved in a work study program. it is time now to show you some of the morning's headlines from around the globe. los angeles times says a convicted killer described as charles manson's right-hand man has been approved for parole. bruce davis was not there when the manson family was murdered and sharon tate died but was convicted of killing two men at the ranch where the followers lived. the washington post reporhe on secret service policies excessive drinking has been prohibited so has sharing work-related information on social media. more than a dozen secret service

and bill whitaker reports. >> reporter: gasoline is the motorists' lifeblood. that's why seeing something like this is more than frustrating. it's almost unbelievable. >> i came to get gas and it's not here. >> reporter: some of the state's gas stations have been forced to close their pumps. and the ones that are open are charging prices that can only be described one way. an arm and a leg. that's why at this gasoline outlet costco motorists are lining up to fill their tanks. the problem is a sharp decline in supply. low gasoline inventories have pushed the average price for a gallon of regular up 18 cents this week alone, to $4.32. that include ss the biggest one-day hike in state history. eight cents a gallon. >> we have never seen a spike like this. this is brand new territory. we just don't know how quickly they're going to be able to get these supplies back online that

we need. >> reporter: what's fueling the shortage? analysts point to disruptions in nearby refineries, recent fires and power failures in california plants as well as a pipeline shutdown were enough to reduce the flow of gasoline causing the laws of supply and demand to go into overdrive. signs like this are creating sticker shock all over california. while $5 gas isn't the norm yet, analysts warn the average price for regular could soon surpass the world's high topping $4.37 a gallon. the uptick is troublesome, but temporary. california's drivers will have reason to give thanks for lower prices by thanksgiving. for "cbs this morning," bill whitaker in los angeles. gas prices have been rising in other states as well because of the shortage of fuel. one exception, gas prices in texas fell by four cents a gallon last week. norah? >> there was a clear winner in

wednesday's presidential debate. at least when it comes to getting all of our attention. mitt romney used public tv's big bird to make a point about spending. and, as jeff glor reports, that has triggered an avalanche of criticism. >> reporter: it was not the first time pbs has been targeted. it was, maybe, the most prominent platform. >> i'm going to stop subsidy to pbs. i'm going to stop other things. i like pbs, i love big bird actually like you, too. but i'm not going to keep spending money on things to boro money from china to pay for it. >> reporter: the second he uttered those words, twitter nearly tumbled over. 17,000 big bird tweets per minute. the social network said it was the most tweeted about political event in u.s. history. ari fleischer, press secretary to george w. bush big bird needs to ask dora the explorer how she manages to survive without federal money. try it big bird. you'll be just fine.

joan rivers attention pbs, if mitt romney fire big bird i'm ready to fill in. i've got the perfect outfit. president obama did not pounce directly during the debates but did thursday on the trail. >> when asked what he would actually do to cut the deficit and reduce spending he said he would eliminate funding for public television. thank goodness somebody is finally getting tough on big bird! it's about time. we didn't know that big bird was driving the federal deficit. >> reporter: last night, the late night show ss had fun with it, too. >> [ bleep ] fire big bird! >> reporter: for years, conservatives have accused pbs of having a liberal buy asias, arguing its federal funds aren't justified. >> we are clearly, as a country, facing such significant challenges. but to talk about pbs in budget

issues to me is unbelievable. >> reporter: the official sesame street twitter feed speak as big bird was more coy saying my bedtime is usually 7:45 but i was really tired yesterday and fell asleep at 7:00. did i miss anything last night? he did. as we still see online this morning, dozens of mean and sa satyrical photos. i'm jeff glor new york for "cbs this morning." >> i think there's a legitimate argument about whether the federal government should be funding pbs. in terms of the effect it would have on the deficit is sort of silly. here is the math. i said it earlier. this is how much the corporation for public broadcasting is part of our budget. two-thirds of our budget is entitlement. the debate should be about how do we pair back entitlement spending or cut back larger government spending in terms of

adding to the deficit. that's just my point this morning. >> i have a program on pbs, but we don't get any money from pbs to create that programming. it comes through underwriters in foundation. we'll visit monaco land of fun, security and no income tax. you are watching "cbs this morning." cbs "this morning".

two years ago, the people of bp made a commitment to the gulf. and every day since, we've worked hard to keep it. bp has paid over twenty-three billion dollars to help people and businesses who were affected and to cover cleanup costs. today, the beaches and gulf are open for everyone to enjoy -- and many areas are reporting their best tourism seasons in years. we've shared what we've learned with governments and across the industry so we can all produce energy more safely. i want you to know, there's another commitment bp takes just as seriously: our commitment to america. bp supports nearly two-hundred-fifty thousand jobs in communities across the country. we hired three thousand people just last year. bp invests more in america than in any other country.

in fact, over the last five years, no other energy company has invested more in the us than bp. we're working to fuel america for generations to come. today, our commitment to the gulf, and to america has never been stronger.

>> what have you been doing to make make monaco's financial system more transparent? >> we've been able to ery accommodate every issue that wast w brought to the forefront. now we are -- for a certain number of years now we are completely compliant with every very international standard.andard. so i think it's very unfair to say that monaco is not compliant. compli we've been compliant for several years now. >> reporter: but other ss say thatco's compliance monaco's compliance is little more than window dressing and essing. financial expert ss say that the very wealthy will continue to flock to monaco.ue to if i was running a tax haven country -- i'm not, but if i were, then what i would choose to do would be to resist the the call for more openness and transparency and keep resisting,

♪ ♪ it is 8:00. welcome back to "cbs this morning." the presidential candidates go back to the campaign trail as mitt romney gains momentum and democrats lean on president obama to do better. it's golden anniversary for the very first beatles record. first, here is a look at what's happening in the world and what we've been covering on "cbs this morning". the big headline this morning, unemployment at 7.8% the first time we've been below 8% since january 2009. the numbers are much bigger than economists pre digited. governor romney is going to say this is not what a real recovery looks like. >> you really think the

president scored better than mr. romney in the debate? >> i thought it was a tie. i thought he had to look presidential and he didn't do that. would i have liked him to be more aggressive? yes. i didn't think the team prepared him. agents and other investigators visited what's left of the american consulate in benghazi. >> we're learn that there are a dream beat of incidents, about 13 security threats. this was building up. for the second day in a row, american is canceling dozens of flights to repair the seats that can pull out of the floor. >> many california drivers are running on empty this morning. the problem could be spreading to other states. >> i came to get gas and it's not here. >> we have two more debates left and i know what we're going to deal with. >> bob and weave? >> i'm going to say a bunch of stuff and you're just going to do ah! o'reilly angry. i'm norah o'donnell in washington. gayle king and charlie rose are

in new york. the labor department says unemployment rate fell to 7.8% the lowest since president obama took office in 2009. the jobs report surprised economists. it is much better-than-expected and could shake up the campaign with just one month to go before the election. bill plante is here with reaction from both candidates. bill, what are we hearing from the white house? >> norah, talk about the obama luck. the president after a lousy performance on wednesday night now has this to play with as he campaigns today in virginia and ohio. the white house already put a statement out from the chairman of council of economic advisors alan kruger saying while there's more work that remains to be done today's employment report provides further evidence that the u.s. economy is continuing to heal. it also says congress should pass another round of middle class, emphasis middle class, tax cuts. >> mitt romney we have also heard from his campaign. he's noting in a statement this is not what a real recovery

looks like. if not for all the people that dropped out, the real unxlimt rate would be closer to 11%. this is the heart of romney's argument against president obama, he can't fix the economy. >> he's been making that point for his entire campaign saying that the president hasn't been able to drive with numbers below 8%. now, of course that's not going to be true anymore. you can count on mitt romney and his campaign to point out that the number only fell to where it fell because there are about 800,000 more people who stopped looking for work. so things aren't as good as they might seem. >> now, there are some people out there suggesting that perhaps the white house cooked the books, if you will changed these numbers because it is an election year and because obama had a bad debate performance. in fact, jack welsh, the former ceo of general electric tweeted "unbelievable jobs numbers. these chicago guys will do anything. can't debate so they change the

numbers." what about that? >> chicago political machinery was responsible for a lot of tricks, but i don't think that even they could pull something like that off. >> you know because you're from chicago. >> that's right. the bureau of labor statistics puts out these numbers, and they're offended of course already, that anybody would suggest they could be cooked. it would be very difficult. somebody would rat on that right away. >> the labor secretary, hilda solis says she's insulted by that and it's ludacris that they would fix these numbers. let's talk about that debate because obama did have a lackluster performance in that debate. are they concerned? what are they saying about whether he'll change his strategy, his practice sessions et cetera? >> they tried on wednesday night at the debate to pretend things were really all right. they final on thursday confessed, yes, he'd had a bad night. david axelrod, one of his main advisors says you're going to

see a shift in tactics. another adviser, david plouffe says you're going to see a different barack obama in the next debate with mitt romney. they know that the president has to, as one adviser put it to me off the record has to bring it really the next time without being unpresidential. that's the trick. >> the stakes are high. there's another debate with vice president biden and paul ryan. bill plante, thanks so much. now back to gail and charlie in new york. american airlines has a new explanation for those seats that have fallen apart in mid flight. american is fixing seats on 48 of its 757 jets. dozens of flights are canceled today. 50 flights were canceled yesterday. the seats have come loose on three american flights since last week. at first americans said faulty floor clamps were to blame. now the airline says it's a combination of wear poor design

wedding every single day for free products when she was on "the view." for her to suddenly emerge out of the shadows and attack me for this, i couldn't believe it. my mom was like who is star jones? >> "usa today" says cooper invited jones on his talk show. instead, she said he used me talking about him coming out as a ratings ploy. how about that gayle? >> i'm thinking they're not going to lunch any time soon. >> we do love anderson. >> yes, we development yes, we do. star is okay, too. a little kerfuffle between the two. american idol judges mariah carry and nicki minaj are arguing. carey said minaj threatened to shoot her and she hired extra security. she responded, i guess it hurts

it's really hard to crack a murder case when police have no physical evidence connecting the suspects to the crime. this time however, a high-tech twist finally led to two arrests. tomorrow night this case will be featured on "48 hours" which just started its 25th season. congratulations, the third longest running program in prime time.

"48 hours" correspondent erin more arty is with us this morning. >> two women, best friends went on trial in lake charles, louisiana, accused of killing one of the women's husbands. the key phone against them the cell phone each used the day the victim disappeared. police around the country say cell phone data is becoming digital dna in our high-tech world. you won't find two women closer friends than robin davis and cissy salzman. >> it's the kind of friend shin that all people should have the one person you can call no matter what they're there regardless. most people don't have that. >> i love you, too, sister. >> reporter: their friendship is more important than ever these days since they were charged with cold blooded murder together. >> i had no idea i was under sus suspicion for murder. >> i still can't believe it.

>> ryan's husband brian was found shot four times at the end of a remote muddy road. >> we get on the scene and there's a carjacked up a body 20 feet or so from the vehicle, appears to have gunshot wounds to the body. >> reporter: at first police thought it was a robbery gone bad. but then they started looking at a lot of strange clues. brian pants were undone his shoes were off and he had been having an affair. >> it was becoming very clear to us that maybe this wasn't what it appeared to be at first. >> what did this case become known to all of you? >> we called it the thelma and louise case, obviously because of the movie. >> reporter: the movie is a tale of two women friends and a murder. but this drama was real. >> do you think that you were a suspect from the very beginning? >> yeah i do. i do. i don't know why. >> reporter: police say it was because of something that placed

them near the crime scene, their cell phone records. >> the phone records are certainly a smoking gun. there's no question about that, that we felt like that was our best piece of evidence. >> reporter: but would it be enough to convince a jury? >> none of the jurors have education in cell phone towers and how that works. it was kind of hard for us to make a decision off that. >> reporter: your best friend and robyn says you would do anything for her? >> absolutely. >> reporter: if she asked you to kill somebody would you do that? >> no, no. not for her, not for jesus christ himself, no, no. i don't have that in me. >> that's why this case is a little troubling. you might see a wife accused of killing her husband, but a best friend being willing to go to prison for life to kill a husband, that's what's been troubling for me. >> no thanks i'll pass on that. going to jail for killing somebody, nope. how important was the cell phone

evidence? >> in this case it's critical. it's becoming more and more critical in these cases. often prosecutors are being able to bring cases they weren't able to bring in the past simply because they have this technology. the whole idea is that every time you make a call or get a call, it pings -- it's supposed to ping off the nearest cell tower and that's recorded and police can get those records. but sometimes it pings off a different tower. if the tower closest to you is overloaded overloaded. so that can be misleading down the line. >> are the laws in louisiana different? >> they are. it really had an effect in this case. you only need ten jurors to convict, not 12 for murder. so that can make a real difference and did make a difference in this case. >> and they look like regular girs, too. i'm struck like that. they look like women we all know. >> gayle, i talked to them beforehand, before the trial. there were no limits to the questions. they seemed to be would gil. they talked to the police

beforehand. didn't ask for lawyers. all those things -- the police said to me that's because they're arrogant and so confident. that's troubling. that's why this case is troubling. >> we can see you tomorrow night, erin on "48 hours." it's called "friends for life." tomorrow night at 10:00, 9:00 central on cbs. the swedish pop rock duo roxette just finished a worldwide tour for their new album. they'll tell us why it's really a miracle that they're back on stage when "cbs this morning" continues. ♪ ♪ >> announcer: this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored by hershey's. what makes a hershey's bar pure? pure, delicious hershey's chocolate. it deliciously melts the moment you take a bite. hershey's air delight. it just might make you melt.

her ♪ ♪ here's a question. what if you could actually get paid to shop? some online retailers are giving incentives to shoppers if they use social media to promote certain products. however, the federal trade commission says you better read that fine print. rebecca jarvis is back with five things you need to know about paid shopping. i think people hear this and say sign me up sign me up.

first you need to figure out where do you go, what the sites are. >> there are a number of websites doing this. some of the big ones, baso pose and fancy.com, those have come to be known as the places where shoppers can go and get paid. i want to make it clear, you don't have to shop. you don't have to buy anything in order to make money on these sites. >> i just need to show up? >> you show up and scree ate an account. they want to get your information and they also want you to share these sites with other people. with beso for example, it works like this. you go to the website, register for an account, you find something on that site that you like, you push that item out through your twitter feed through your facebook, google plus, pintrest. with pose, you take a picture of yourself register on their site, show the picture to anyone

who wants to see it in your social network and put links to the different items you're wearing. for example i'm wearing an ann taylor top today. >> you look lovely. >> well thank you. i'm not promoting ann taylor. just as an example, if somebody decided they wanted to buy it i would get paid as a resulted of people wanting to buy it. >> how do you know if people really like it or are they saying it so they can actually get some money? >> that's the thing. you actually don't have to put any commentary along with what you're putting out there on the internet in order to get paid. this is really about driving traffic. that's what these websites want and driving sales. in the case of beso you'll get paid for a click. it doesn't even have to amount tore a purchase 22 to 24 cents is the average. pose pays between 5% and 20% of the purchase price. so it could be significant, but not everybody is going to pay

you 20%. at fancy.com, it's 2% of the purchase price if somebody buys what you put out there. >> so it varies depending on what it costs? >> it does. >> and then you have to be aware of fine print. isn't that always the case. >> there's no such thing as a free lunch. we should know that by now. with these sites, what you have to keep in mind is you're putting your personal information out there and you're also sharing things with your friends and family likely through your social network. so you want to be up front with them. you don't have to be. there's nothing holding you necessarily accountable for being up front with them but you really should in my opinion, tell people if you're going to put up something on the site, on your website, your facebook page, you should tell people, if you click on this or if you buy it i'm getting paid. >> i think that makes a difference. the federal trade commission do they have guidelines or concerns about how this all works? >> their concern about this is they want to know that people are aware of this. right now, the onus does fall on

the user, you or me. if we put it on the website, the onus falls on us to tell people i'm getting paid for this. the federal trade commission is looking into this and it's something they're going to i think especially as this gets bigger they'll pursue more heavily because they want to make sure there's truth in advertising advertising, and with the internet there's so much advertising, it's hard to make sure it's all honest. >> all right, rebecca jarvis. bobbi brown started her makeup business with $5,000. seven years later she sold it for about $75 million with an m. she talks with us about beauty power and the meaning of success coming up next on "cbs this morning."
